Not a private tour guide, but I took the Verger tour at Westminster Abbey and it felt like a private tour. I also recommend London Walks. Again, not private, but excellent walking tours of many, many sights. My favorite was a tour I took via boat to Greenwich and then had a walking tour all around. The Rick Steves' London or England or Great Britain tour books have the best summary of sights to see I have found in any guidebook.

Besides offering group tours, London Walks offers any of their tours as private ones. I believe they can also customize a tour as well.

We did the London Walks tour to Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London and enjoyed them both.

Definately go on the Verger Tour. I got a guide who helped the Royals at the Queen Moms funeral and had some interesting stories on how the Abbey is set up. I can imagine that the Vergers will be helping with the coronation.

And if I understand correctly the verger tour is first come first serve? cannot be pre-booked.
